Sometimes, it seems we’d be willing to go to all costs to shed pounds. Well, almost all costs. Most diets (and many health professionals), recommend cutting out all alcohol (paging Atkins and South Beach). But who’s willing to give up their barhopping to drop some weight?

Lots of activities are appropriate for couples: dinner and a movie; massage and romantic getaway; Christmas and holiday portrait. But workouts? Not so much. We put writer Cindy Taveras and her intrepid boyfriend, Chris, to the test at Bailey’s Powerhouse Gym.

In our text messaging, Twitter tweeting, iPhone society, multi-tasking is a given, and the gym is no exception. Sure, you caught up with your BFF, saw a rerun of Bones and clocked 60 minutes of cardio—but what is the cost of such a comfortable routine? The price is a serious lack of results.
